Don't know anything about that one, but Porsche is putting out a 4-door next year called the Panamera.

That little green car was conceived by William Dick, who, at the time had an ownership share of Porsche Cars Southwest in Texas. He hired a designer, and had Dick Troutman of Troutman-Barnes in L.A. build it. The basis for the car was a new '67 S, which was made 21" longer, and the body became, ah, distinguished by four doors that all latched at the B-pillars. Porsche also built one or two prototypes with stretched platforms, but they were two-door models.

Hey, Pete, maybe call you're buddy with the 912, and if the above mentioned pic is along the lines of the restoration he has in mind, I'll be first to make a donation for his new cement footware...you know, for that definitive final day at the beach he'd be deserving.
